Download LobstackA team is about to hire and needs a posting, or an old posting no longer describes the job.
Ask, or find in the thread: what this person must have done after three and six months, who they work with, and why the role exists now.
Write it in this order:
Cut jargon, years-of-experience counts that do not matter, and words that narrow who applies for no reason.
Check it against the six-month outcomes: every requirement maps to one.
Ask before publishing it anywhere.
